FOOD AND RISK in the US and UK Год выпуска: 2011Автор: Bruce A. ScholtenИздательство: LAP Lambert Academic PublishingСтраниц: 328ISBN: 9783844313420Описание Food scares such as mad cow disease (BSE), concern for animal welfare, GMOs, the environment and social justice in conventional, global food systems prompt consumer reflection on organic or local food in alternative food networks. But how does reflection become consumption on a range of consumers around one city? How does it compare to people across the world? This doctoral study held focus groups with academics, firefighters, motorcyclists and others, and surveyed over 400 people comparing Seattle, US (hearth to Amazon, Boeing, Microsoft & Starbucks) to Newcastle upon Tyne, UK (crucible of the Industrial Revolution now transitioning to a service economy). Preference for local food is unearthed along with interest in organics. The book concludes that if organic or local activists from one city were parachuted into another, a common geographical imagination ensures adaptation to the new city. Addressing Michael Pollan''s (2001) warning that a corporate organic-industrial...

Solar Благодарю создателей studentochka.ru за помощь в сопровождении Дипломной работы. Спасибо за помощь, это слабо сказано. Если бы не они, я бы никогда не сдала свой диплом. Они помогли мне с темой, дали консультацию, и поддерживали советами и материалами буквально до самой защиты. Я не ожидала ничего подобного ни от кого. Даже мои друзья отказались мне помочь, ссылаясь на слишком малый объём времени и невероятную тему. А тут... Нашлись люди, которые помогли мне совершенно незнакомому человеку, воззвавшему к ним с отчаянной просьбой. Это весьма и весьма классно. Я столько времени искала помощи в инете, оставляла объявления на всех досках объявлений всех студенческих порталах которых посещала. И самое большое, получила три или четыре ответа, и то с предложением сопровождать работу за сравнительно низкую цену. Ну не было у меня на тот момент денег. Ни копейки. Если бы были, разве не легче было заказать работу в своём городе, а не искать помощи в инете? Так что огромное спасибо порталу studentochka.ru, его создателям, а в частности Марине Крестьяновой за помощь и поддержку.
